While I would welcome additional amenities in our area, it's not unreasonable to request to know where they will be and how much they could cost us.

This is why folks are asking questions of the officials who would vote on this issue. An added complexity to this area north of 466 is that it spans 3 counties, but since these Villages are next door to each other and interact with our shared VCCDD amenities, what happens in one Village/county can and does impact all of our LifeStyles north of 466.

Some people wish to be active in what happens to their/our community, others don't. But I hope we can all agree that we wish to continue the philosophy of "It's a beautiful day in the Villages!".
I guess you missed it when someone posted the plan which CLEARLY mentioned a new resort pool, bocce, shuffleboard and cornhole courts. NORTH OF 466. All available to ALL residents and visitors.

But hey, no need to quibble over facts, right?
